(Explanation of the first migration, which is the sincerity of worship for Allah alone, and an explanation of the variation of people in that) So the first migration is to the Most Merciful through ***sincerity in secret
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : He said: "So the first migration is to the Most Merciful ***"
And the second migration is to the Messenger
"The first migration is to the Most Merciful *** through sincerity in secret and in public"
Then he explained this sincerity by saying:
"So that the intention is the Face of Allah *** through words and deeds and faith"
People vary greatly in this migration; some have a pure migration, and some have a mixed migration. If a person says something with the intention of showing off, his migration is mixed. If a person says something with no intention other than the worldly life only, his migration is destroyed. So people differ in this migration to Allah through sincerity.
And his saying: "through words" is like dhikr (remembrance of Allah), "and deeds" is like prayer, for example, the actions, and "and faith" is like the belief of the heart. So people differ greatly in this.
